I wanted to share a couple. Very happy indeed!

Are most of these just point and shoot with portrait mode?

 

[Ortiz83]

So nit picky. You must be fun to hang out with.

Hahaha

 

[x-evil-x]

how do you even post full images from your phone on here? common MacRumors make the file size actually be able to just load your pics
[doublepost=1537663388][/doublepost]Never mind it works now for some reason
[doublepost=1537663584][/doublepost]Some more

Little photoshoot of me and my wife’s cars.

Portrait mode is definitely more fancy but it’s also amazing in detail/lighting. None of my photos are edited for clarity.

Some non-portrait photos. Low light and such.

The shadows on the right interest me most.

In the theatre.

@nlkccom GORGEOUS pics! Wow!
[doublepost=1537667515][/doublepost]This morning's sunrise before a trail run. Didn't have time to tinker w/exposures/settings - just straight shot from the Xs Max.

I had a few short minutes in the store today and took a couple of quick shots over the crowd to the far wall with my 7 and the XS. I was surprised to see very little difference in clarity and in fact the biggest difference was that the XS colors were a little more accurate.

In that specific setting I didn’t see enough difference to upgrade but I suspect that in other circumstances things might be more pronounced.

View attachment 787032 View attachment 787031 View attachment 787027 Yes, it’s edited heavily, but I’m loving the phone. Natural light in a breezeway.

Wonderful!!

View attachment 786504 I took this in 2006. I think it was the Canon 1D with the 400 f/2.8. How’s the bokeh?

I’m not trolling. Different cameras for different applications.

This is a great shot and certainly one of the reasons I’ll never give up my DSLRs.

 

[Jsims1]

Took this on the road in Indiana today.

 

[big samm]

How are you all uploading pics? tapatalk on my max won't even give the option to post pics

Probably a bug on the max, i got the same problem , we are not the only ones.

Glad it's not just me. Hopefully tapatalk next update fixes it.

That's some serious audio gear there sir! Must have sound like a concert hall/auditorium over there every time you listen

Thanks! I enjoy listening to what they heard in the studio (or the concert). Lots of fun.

I took another shot in a dark room - literally - with just the component lights and an led spotlight behind the turntable. Check out the clarity in the details of the tips of the components. Really amazing low light capability!

I’m thinking most of you saying the camera isn’t that great need to borrow my 6 for a day. Holy improvement!

Is it a huge step up from the X? Probably not, so don’t upgrade. Wait another year or 2. I promise, no one is going to walk up to you and say “OMG, is your phone over a year old? Leave at once, that is embarrassing.”

Because, they don’t care.

I just want everyone to keep capturing those moments, writing their stories - and hey, maybe occasionally PRINT some pictures for the next generation.

More from the hike....point and shoot no editing
iPhone Xs Max

 

[Geckotek]

Just a random test shot in the subway today. Typically an iPhone would blow out the highlights on the left and lose all detail in the dark ceiling. Pretty impressed with the results. (Untouched except to crop).

 

[rocknblogger]

View attachment 786567 Here’s another at 400mm (fixed lens). Like I said, different cameras for different applications.

It’s not the camera my friend...this is all you!!! Granted a smartphone camera will never be able to capture moments like these from the same distance.

 

[tekchic]

@jamezr Where are you hiking? The shots are beautiful! I live in Phoenix, so most of mine are trails within 45 minutes of Phoenix. Occasionally we hit up the mountains in Flagstaff, Mogollon Rim, and Grand Canyon, but usually it's good 'ol desert running.

Getting out of topic in this thread so this might be my last response about this. Only thing I could think of is difference in sensor sizes from a 35mm to a 21.9mm sensor which would have a wider DOF as you decrease the sensor size.

That's why there's bokeh slider inside the app that emulates a 35mm DOF because the sensor is very small that it cannot produce a good bokeh without that emulator unless your background is hundreds of meters away from your subject and the phone is within a meter away from the subject.

It’s not just about bokeh. That is it’s not only about depth of field. Different DSLR lenses that are f1.4 or f2.8 for longer lenses will give you different results especially when there are some kind of lights or reflections in the background. You’ll get different shapes and shades depending on the lenses being used. It’s more complicated than just creating blur.

I took all of that into conideration prior to the shot. Both lenses were wiped completely. 8 Plus is set to auto HDR. I’m not intentionally trying to skew results. This can be recreated over and over.

Same situation as I previously posted and the same parameters. Both lenses wiped prior to taking. Both using HDR. No other settings tweaked. Took the best photo possible under both exposure situations. I gain nothing by trying to make one look better than the other. This is simply what I’m noticing.

Last photo is metering for dark chair while other images metering from window IMO. Dark chair metering bringing up exposure and blowing out window.
